Thyroid gland, Transcription machinery, Metamorphosis, Thyroid hormone receptorsAbstract
Anurans amphibians developed several morphological and physiological adaptations to their earthly life. The thyroid gland is primarily responsible for the metamorphosis and this process is coordinated by the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis. The timing of metamorphosis is therefore a result of combined functions of synthesis of hormones and enzymes, processes that are regulated by gene expression of each component of that axis from de own hormones involved and their receptors. In this paper was approached how is gene regulation of thyroid hormone receptors and the importance of this process for the evolutionary success of the group.
